Most of my model locos are dull colours - to be honest most of them are painted black. I wanted to do something different this time so the Critter is yellow. When I saw the kit for sales my mind conjured up a picture of the finished article and that picture was dirty yellow and apart from some dalliances with the idea of going grey, this has stuck.
Of course since I don't use yellow that often, the pot of Humbrol isn't in the best condition and I was too impatient to wait for the shops to open so I could replace it. I couldn't be bothered to set the airbrush up either so the first coat was hand painted. This isn't as lazy as it seems. A high quality finish isn't required as the weathering will be pretty fierce.
